Bottle from lowcostbeer.com. Clear gold with small white top. Basic malts and a light citric lemon hop gives this a shandy aroma. Light bodied, semi-drying, refreshing and crisp. Downside is the flavour being on the thin side for an ale although pleasant with citric lemon and floral notes and a cracker like malt. Easy drinking - I don't mind this.

Bottle from a little shop near the London Eye. Pours gold with a white head. Aroma is a touch of fruit with mild spice. Med minus body. Flavor is “blond” - with a little fruit and a little spice. Very light on the malt - on everything. Towards dry and not very bitter. Rather dull. Sessionable, but not worth effort seeking it out.
